    But yeah I never felt like I couldn't go to her about any type of problem, so that part is good and I am lucky.

    That's the most important thing, I think. :)

    Apparently. Every time I watch the news, it's the same excuse.

    Hey, I wish I could've went to Rock and Roll camp. I was too busy listening to Shout at the Devil by the Crue when I was 8 though. It made me kill animals, and drink my own blood obviously :)

    I remember my older brothers playing "too young to fall in love" over and over again!

    That video had nothing to do with the song by the way! (I still love it though ;))

He exxxplained music is GREAT but that Motley Crue were VERY sinful and I wasnt reddie for that scene. :D NOW he shakes his head and says 'havnt u outgrown them or Pearl Jam yet??!!'

    so when my 6 year old daughter asks me the following question i should tell them the truth?


    "hey dad, how was i made, is there really a Santa Claus, when will the tooth fairy come, you know how Nana died recently... well what is cancer and what happens to her when they put her into the ground... is there really a heaven? what happened to Madeline McCann and what were you and mummy doing under the covers the other night and why did you have a funny mask on with a zip for a mouth"


    you want the truth? you cant handle the truth


    kids need to stay innocent for a while non-parent dudes... ergo let us handle it whilst you lot pretend you are happy being single. :)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
